Abstract
A method for mapping a physical hybrid automatic repeat request indicator channel (PHICH) is described. The method for mapping a PHICH includes determining an index of a resource element group transmitting a repetitive pattern of the PHICH, according to a ratio of the number of available resource element groups in a symbol in which the PHICH is transmitted and the number of available resource element groups in a first or second OFDM
symbol, and mapping the PHICH to the symbol according to the determined index. In transmitting the PHICH, since efficient mapping is performed considering available resource elements varying with OFDM symbols, repetition of the PHICH does not generate interference between neighbor cell IDs and performance is improved.

METHOD FOR MAPPING PHYSICAL HYBRID AUTOMATIC REPEAT
REQUEST INDICATOR CHANNEL
[Technical Field]
The present invention relates to a mapping method for frequency and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol regions of a signal transmitted on downlink in a cellular OFDM wireless packet communication system.
[Background Art]
When transmitting/receiving a packet in a mobile communication system, a receiver should inform a transmitter as to whether or not the packet has been successfully received. If the reception of the packet is successful, the receiver transmits an acknowledgement (ACK) signal to cause the transmitter to transmit a new packet. If the reception of the packet fails, the receiver transmits a negative acknowledgement (NACK) signal to cause the transmitter to re-transmit the packet.
Such a process is called automatic repeat request (ARQ). Meanwhile, hybrid ARQ
(HARQ), which is a combination of the ARQ operation and a channel coding scheme, has been proposed. HARQ lowers an error rate by combining a re-transmitted packet with a previously received packet and improves overall system efficiency. In order to increase throughput of the system, HARQ demands a rapid ACK/NACK response from the receiver compared with a conventional ARQ operation. Therefore, the

[Technical Field]
The present invention relates to a mapping method for frequency and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol regions of a signal transmitted on downlink in a cellular OFDM wireless packet communication system.
[Background Art]
When transmitting/receiving a packet in a mobile communication system, a receiver should inform a transmitter as to whether or not the packet has been successfully received. If the reception of the packet is successful, the receiver transmits an acknowledgement (ACK) signal to cause the transmitter to transmit a new packet. If the reception of the packet fails, the receiver transmits a negative acknowledgement (NACK) signal to cause the transmitter to re-transmit the packet.
Such a process is called automatic repeat request (ARQ). Meanwhile, hybrid ARQ
(HARQ), which is a combination of the ARQ operation and a channel coding scheme, has been proposed. HARQ lowers an error rate by combining a re-transmitted packet with a previously received packet and improves overall system efficiency. In order to increase throughput of the system, HARQ demands a rapid ACK/NACK response from the receiver compared with a conventional ARQ operation. Therefore, the
2 ACK/NACK response in HARQ is transmitted by a physical channel signaling method.
The HARQ scheme may be broadly classified into chase combining (CC) and incremental redundancy (IR). The CC method serves to re-transmit a packet using the same modulation method and the same coding rate as those used when transmitting a previous packet. The IR method serves to re-transmit a packet using a different modulation method and a different coding rate from those used when transmitting a previous packet. In this case, the receiver can raise system performance through coding diversity.
In a multi-carrier cellular mobile communication system, mobile stations belonging to one or a plurality of cells transmit an uplink data packet to a base station.
That is, since a plurality of mobile stations within one sub-frame can transmit an uplink data packet, the base station must be able to transmit ACK/NACK signals to a plurality of mobile stations within one sub-frame. If the base station multiplexes a plurality of ACK/NACK signals transmitted to the mobile stations within one sub-frame using CDMA scheme within a partial time-frequency region of a downlink transmission band of the multi-carrier system, ACK/NACK signals with respect to other mobile stations are discriminated by an orthogonal code or a quasi-orthogonal code multiplied through a time-frequency region. If quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) transmission is performed, the ACK/NACK signals may be discriminated by different orthogonal phase components.
When transmitting the ACK/NACK signals using CDMA multiplexing scheme in order to transmit a plurality of ACK/NACK signals within one sub-frame, a downlink wireless channel response characteristic should not be greatly varied in a time-frequency region in which the ACK/NACK signals are transmitted. This is because if
The HARQ scheme may be broadly classified into chase combining (CC) and incremental redundancy (IR). The CC method serves to re-transmit a packet using the same modulation method and the same coding rate as those used when transmitting a previous packet. The IR method serves to re-transmit a packet using a different modulation method and a different coding rate from those used when transmitting a previous packet. In this case, the receiver can raise system performance through coding diversity.
In a multi-carrier cellular mobile communication system, mobile stations belonging to one or a plurality of cells transmit an uplink data packet to a base station.
That is, since a plurality of mobile stations within one sub-frame can transmit an uplink data packet, the base station must be able to transmit ACK/NACK signals to a plurality of mobile stations within one sub-frame. If the base station multiplexes a plurality of ACK/NACK signals transmitted to the mobile stations within one sub-frame using CDMA scheme within a partial time-frequency region of a downlink transmission band of the multi-carrier system, ACK/NACK signals with respect to other mobile stations are discriminated by an orthogonal code or a quasi-orthogonal code multiplied through a time-frequency region. If quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) transmission is performed, the ACK/NACK signals may be discriminated by different orthogonal phase components.
When transmitting the ACK/NACK signals using CDMA multiplexing scheme in order to transmit a plurality of ACK/NACK signals within one sub-frame, a downlink wireless channel response characteristic should not be greatly varied in a time-frequency region in which the ACK/NACK signals are transmitted. This is because if
3 orthogonality is maintained between the multiplexed different ACK/NACK
signals, a receiver can obtain satisfactory reception performance without applying a special receiving algorithm such as channel equalization. Accordingly, the CDMA
multiplexing of the ACK/NACK signals should be performed within the time-frequency region in which a wireless channel response is not significantly varied.
However, if the wireless channel quality of a specific mobile station is poor in the time-frequency region in which the ACK/NACK signals are transmitted, the ACK/NACK reception performance of the mobile station may also be greatly lowered.
Accordingly, the ACK/NACK signals transmitted to any mobile station within one sub-frame may be repeatedly transmitted over separate time-frequency regions in a plurality of time-frequency axes, and the ACK/NACK signals may be multiplexed with ACK/NACK signals transmitted to other mobile stations by CDMA in each time-frequency region. Therefore, the receiver can obtain a time-frequency diversity gain when receiving the ACK/NACK signals.
However, in a conventional physical hybrid ARQ indicator channel (PHICH) mapping method, there exists a defect that PHICH groups between neighbor cells have difficulty avoiding collision as illustrated in FIG. 1.

An object of some embodiments of the present invention devised to solve the problem lies in providing a method for mapping a PHICH so that repetition of the PHICH
does not generate interference between neighbor cell IDs by considering available resource
signals, a receiver can obtain satisfactory reception performance without applying a special receiving algorithm such as channel equalization. Accordingly, the CDMA
multiplexing of the ACK/NACK signals should be performed within the time-frequency region in which a wireless channel response is not significantly varied.

The detailed description, which will be given below with reference to the accompanying drawings, is intended to explain exemplary embodiments of the present invention, rather than to show the only embodiments that can be implemented according to the invention.
When transmitting data through downlink of an OFDM wireless packet communication system, a channel transmitting ACK/NACK signals may be referred to as a physical hybrid ARQ indicator channel (PHICH).
In a 3d generation partnership project (3GPP) long term evolution (LTE) system, the PHICH is repeatedly transmitted three times in order to obtain diversity gain.
Through how many OFDM symbols the PHICH is transmitted is determined depending on information transmitted through a primary broadcast channel (PBCH) and on whether or not a subframe is for multicast broadcast over single frequency network (MBSFN). If the PHICH is transmitted through one OFDM symbol, the PHICH

The detailed description, which will be given below with reference to the accompanying drawings, is intended to explain exemplary embodiments of the present invention, rather than to show the only embodiments that can be implemented according to the invention.
When transmitting data through downlink of an OFDM wireless packet communication system, a channel transmitting ACK/NACK signals may be referred to as a physical hybrid ARQ indicator channel (PHICH).
In a 3d generation partnership project (3GPP) long term evolution (LTE) system, the PHICH is repeatedly transmitted three times in order to obtain diversity gain.
Through how many OFDM symbols the PHICH is transmitted is determined depending on information transmitted through a primary broadcast channel (PBCH) and on whether or not a subframe is for multicast broadcast over single frequency network (MBSFN). If the PHICH is transmitted through one OFDM symbol, the PHICH
repeating three times should be evenly distributed over a frequency bandwidth of one OFDM symbol. If the PHICH is transmitted through three OFDM symbols, each repetition is mapped to a corresponding OFDM symbol.
FIGs. 2 and 3 illustrate resource element groups (REGs) to which the PHICH is mapped.
8 Each REG is comprised of four resource elements. Since a first OFDM
symbol includes reference signals RSO and RS1, locations except for the reference signal locations are available for the resource elements. In FIG. 3, even a second OFDM symbol includes reference signals RS2 and RS3.
FIGs. 4 and 5 illustrate examples of mapping a PHICH when a spreading factor (SF) is 4. When an SF is 4, one repetition of one PHICH group is mapped to one REG.
In FIGs. 4 and 5, precoding for transmit diversity is applied. A11, A21, A31, and A41 denote resource elements of an REG constituting a specific PHICH. C1, C2, C3, and C4 denote resource elements of an REG for PCHICH or a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH). FIGs. 4 and 5 correspond to the cases where the number of antennas is 1 and 2, respectively, when reference signals are not considered.
FIGs. 6 and 7 illustrate examples of mapping a PHICH when an SF is 2.
When an SF is 2, one repetition of two PHICH groups is mapped to one REG.
Precoding for transmit diversity is applied to FIGs. 6 and 7. FIGs. 6 and 7 correspond to the cases where the number of antennas is 1 and 2, respectively, when reference signals are not considered.
In actual implementation as illustrated in FIGs. 2 and 3, it should be considered that the number of available REGs in an OFDM symbol including reference signals is not equal to the number of available REGs in an OFDM symbol which does not include reference signals.
Meanwhile, if a sequence for mapping the PHICH is denoted as y(P)(0),..., y(P)(Msymb -1), then y(P) (n) satisfies j (P)(n) _ y(P)(n), which (n) denotes an i-th indicates the sum of all PHICHs in one PHICH group. y; P)

FIGs. 4 and 5 correspond to the cases where the number of antennas is 1 and 2, respectively, when reference signals are not considered.

When an SF is 2, one repetition of two PHICH groups is mapped to one REG.
Precoding for transmit diversity is applied to FIGs. 6 and 7. FIGs. 6 and 7 correspond to the cases where the number of antennas is 1 and 2, respectively, when reference signals are not considered.
In actual implementation as illustrated in FIGs. 2 and 3, it should be considered that the number of available REGs in an OFDM symbol including reference signals is not equal to the number of available REGs in an OFDM symbol which does not include reference signals.
Meanwhile, if a sequence for mapping the PHICH is denoted as y(P)(0),..., y(P)(Msymb -1), then y(P) (n) satisfies j (P)(n) _ y(P)(n), which (n) denotes an i-th indicates the sum of all PHICHs in one PHICH group. y; P)

An index of a PHICH group has m'= 0 as an initial value. A symbol quadruplet z(P)(i) at m' is mapped to anREG of (k',l')1 (where l;' is anindex of an OFDM symbol in which i-th repetition of a PHICH group is transmitted, and k;' is an index of a frequency domain).
When a PHICH is transmitted through two OFDM symbols, the PHICH is repeated twice upon a first OFDM symbol and repeated once upon a second OFDM
symbol according to a transmitted PHICH group. Conversely, the PHICH may be repeated once upon the first OFDM symbol and repeated twice upon the second OFDM
symbol. This may be expressed by the following Equation 1.

group, and i denotes the number of repetitions of a PHICH. When the PHICH is repeated three times, i has values of 0, 1, and 2.

A PHICH, which is an important channel for transmitting ACK/NACK signals 5 indicating whether or not data has been received, should be transmitted as stably as possible. Further, since ACK/NACK signals should be transmitted to a user even in a cell edge, substantial power is used compared with other channels. If locations for transmitting the PHICHs in respective cells are the same, PHICH transmission performance may be deteriorated due to interference caused by transmission of the
An index of a PHICH group has m'= 0 as an initial value. A symbol quadruplet z(P)(i) at m' is mapped to anREG of (k',l')1 (where l;' is anindex of an OFDM symbol in which i-th repetition of a PHICH group is transmitted, and k;' is an index of a frequency domain).
When a PHICH is transmitted through two OFDM symbols, the PHICH is repeated twice upon a first OFDM symbol and repeated once upon a second OFDM

FIGs. 8 to 10 illustratively show Equation 1.
FIGs. 8 and 9 show the cases where 1,'= 0 and 1;'= (Lm' l 2] + i + 1) mod 2, respectively. FIG 10 shows the case where 1,'=1 and a PHICH group is repeated at a PHICH duration of 3.
A PHICH, which is an important channel for transmitting ACK/NACK signals 5 indicating whether or not data has been received, should be transmitted as stably as possible. Further, since ACK/NACK signals should be transmitted to a user even in a cell edge, substantial power is used compared with other channels. If locations for transmitting the PHICHs in respective cells are the same, PHICH transmission performance may be deteriorated due to interference caused by transmission of the
10 PHICH between neighbor cells. Accordingly, if transmission locations of the PHICH
in respective cells differ, interference caused by transmission of the PHICH
between neighbor cells is reduced. Consequently, PHICH transmission performance can be improved. Namely, if mapping locations of the PHICH are determined according to cell IDs, the above-described problem can be solved. The PHICH is repeatedly transmitted three times to obtain diversity gain. To increase the diversity gain, each repetition should be evenly distributed over an entire frequency bandwidth.
To satisfy the above conditions, a PHICH group is transmitted in units of an REG consisting of 4 resource elements. The location of a transmission start REG of the PHICH is designated according to a cell ID and each repetition of the PHICH is arranged at an interval of a value obtained by dividing the number of REGs which can be transmitted by 3 based on the transmission start REG. However, when such a repetition of the PHICH is distributed over a plurality of OFDM symbols, the number of REGs which can be used for PHICH transmission in each OFDM symbol differs.

11 is because, in the first OFDM symbol, a physical control format indicator channel (PCFICH) for transmitting information including the number of OFDM symbols used for a control channel is transmitted, and because reference signals transmitted in the first and second OFDM symbols differ according to the number of transmit antennas.
When the PHICH is transmitted through multiple OFDM symbols including different REGs, since the number of REGs in each OFDM symbol differs, repetitions of each PHICH are not evenly dispersed over an entire frequency bandwidth. The location of the first REG should be designated according to a cell ID and a repetitive pattern should be allocated at regular intervals based on an index of the first REG. However, since resolution of a frequency location depending on the index differs according to the number of REGs in each OFDM symbol, there exists a defect that a reference location is changed.
Therefore, when the PHICH is transmitted through multiple OFDM symbols, if the start location according to the cell ID is determined in consideration of a ratio of REGs of the first start symbol to REGs of the other symbols, the above problem can be solved. When the PHICH is transmitted through one or three OFDM symbols, the location of the first start symbol is always the first OFDM symbol. However, when the PHICH is transmitted through two OFDM symbols, the first PHICH group is started from the second OFDM symbol. Accordingly, if the ratio of REGs is considered, a reference symbol should be changed.
The above description may be expressed by the following equation 2.
